My main worry however is if there's any way this could get in the way of joining some other organisation that can help us set up a non-profit organisation which would make donations much easier to handle (right now we pretty much can't accept donations - unless they're personal donations to one of the developers). Some way of handling donations is much more important to me as that could help our infrastructure as the project grows and might also go towards helping developers cover a small part of the costs incurred when going to conferences or whatever. So the two questions that I don't see answered by the above is: 1. whether we're free to join other organisations and under which terms 2. how easy it is to leave OIN again if we end up in a situation where that'd be neccessary. Assuming that the answers are satisfactory I don't think I have anything against joining OIN personally. /Bryan _______________________________________________ Exherbo-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.exherbo.org/mailman/listinfo/exherbo-dev
